TCC doesn't have the right tool in its tool library.For faced machining.But in physical use a boring bar tool,or a tool with a included angle for metal ,or a tool with radius if your machining wood.

Hey KaiSorry I didnâ€™t respond sooner I had troubles with my P.C.After cleaning out a cookies which contains some kind of malware. I was able to proceed on your question about tooling. In the enclosed tcw. file is the tool that would be a choice. But in my case I had to change the sizes to avoid a collision with the tool. Tool dimensions can be changes in the Tool Store in the Tool definitions Fields. Also a link showing it operation. Also I show jpeg. showing a collision with the tool as example on how the wrong tool can cause problems.

Your Welcome No I didn't test these programs,In fact the speeds and feeds may need to be modify in the real world.I didn't put much emphasis on them.I do have CNC extensive experience with both manual and CNC.The tool I show is not my 1st choice but I used to see if it will work. There are better tools to chose from.The tool is base on how the direction of cut is going is how it works.I have a flange that I will post with O-ring groove that show the tool for grooving in relation to our prior discussions.

EDIT : added attachments
